Constructing Hogs.

Many farmers get the idea that they
can raise better hogs by combining the
good qualities of two or more breeds. In
accordance with this view, they one year
use Poland boar, the next Berkshire
and the next perhaps, q Jersey Red.
Some even go so far as to have a rotation
of the hog crop by beginning with the
first and going through the series again
Little, if anything, is gained and much
is lost by this practice. The hogs are not
uniform in size, form, color, appearance,
or in ability to fatten. When man
comes to sell them he cannot offer an even
lot of hogs, similarly fine in all respects.
The buyer is not so well pleased when he
sees them as he is by an even lot of any
one breed. Another important point is
developed when the farmer comes to pick
out young sows for the next years breed
ing. If he has bred evenly he can get
an even lot of Sows the best suited to his
idea of q type of that breed, and boar
can be chosen that will suit all. Where
mixing has been INDUCED in the sows
chosen will represent several types and
the boar can be we'll adapted to only a
few of the sows. A man gets some in
spiration for better breeding, if he has
bred to "type always carried in his
m!nd," and annually reproduced in the
pen with increasing accuracy.
THERE'S, of course, something to be
said on the other side-breeding too fine,
or breeding in and in to establish or pre-.
serve type. For the practical produc
ton of pork there is no need of doing
fancy breeding. So many raisers of the
standard breeds can be found within {
short journey of almost any farmer thai
he need not lack for boar quite similar
to his "type," without breeding to ont
closely related. Prairie Farmer.

AGRICULTURAL.
TOPICS OF INTEREST RELATIVE
To FARM AND GARDEN.
Keep the Managers Clean.


The more highbred and spirited the
horse the more dainty he will be about
his feed, and the greater care must be
taken to keep feed boxes and managers
free from filth. Almost any scrub would,
however, refuse TO eat out of managers as
they often are left, with portions of the
unconsumed hay or grain to be run over
and soiled by fowls while the horse is
away at work. This is a too common
condition of many farmers stables at this
season, when increasing warmth dulls
the appetite and makes soiled food doubly
offensive by its decay. Many a hard
worked horse gets off his feed, as it is
said, and grows poor from this cause
alone. More care should be taken at
this season to feed only what will be eaten
clean, whether of hay, meal or grain. If
any remains when the horse is taken out
in the morning to work it should be re-
moved from the feed box and given to
some other animal that will cat it outside
the stable.

Chronic Rheumatisrn Cured.

VALLEY STREAK, N. T., January H3, 1855. I am 8 boatman and upwards of sixty years of age. During the past two years I have suffered severely from rheumatism of the lower part of my back. My back ached without cessation, and at times thought I would be paralyzed. procured two All- cocks Porous Plasters and put them across the lower part of my spine. In twenty-four hours all pain had ceased. At the end of week put on two fresh Allcoek's Porous Plasters, wore them ten days, then took them off and washed my back with little alcohol, which removed every trace of the plasters. It is now three months since the plasters cur ed me, and feel very much stronger and better than ever before.
